The thesis researches the development of the Calendrical Aspects of the Passover within Christianity of the first three centuries AD. It presents the different Calendrical systems, their reason why different Calendrical systems developed and which of the systems had an effect on the development of the Calendrical Aspect of the Passover. The Passover consist out of different liturgical elements, which portrays into six different aspects. The Calendrical Aspect is one of these aspects. Because it consists out of Liturgical Elements, development could be analysed and researched as mimetically or etiologically based development. In general there are two main foundations on which the development is based, namely the Law or Old Testament and the New Testament, specifically the chronology of Jesus' crucifixion. The development can generally be traced within the parameters of the different groups' view and authority they granted to these two bases. Christianity developed within a specific era, within a specific sociological environment. The most important basis which is taken into consideration is its origin from Judaism and Jewish background. Christianity mainly developed from the Enochite Judaism and was vehemently opposed by the Hasmonite Judaism. These two opposing forces evolved into two perpetual conflicting parties, namely the Rabbinic Judaism and the developing Christianity. The different groups' calculation of the Passover Calendrical Aspects was multifariously linked to their relationship towards this Christian-Judaic animosity. The Passover actually consist out of two discernable feasts, namely the Pascha and the Feast of the Unleavened Bread. These two combined feasts originated as an eight day feast. The Feast of the First Fruit is a separate feast, independent from the Passover, but connected through its Calendrical Aspects. It serves as an important clue in the analysis of the development of the Passover's Calendrical Aspects, but does not form part of the Passover. Although traces of the Passover during the first two centuries could be detected, the controversy regarding the calculation of the Passover generally developed during the second half of the second century AD. It is called the Quartadecima Controversy. The controversy is portrayed as consisting out of three stages, but its aftermath lasted throughout the third century AD. Within this controversy two main groups aroused, namely the Quartadecimans and the Anti-Quartadecimans. The Quartadecimans generally calculated the commencement of the Passover on 14 Abib. The Anti- Quartadecimans used the 14th Abib as beacon from which to calculate the Passover, but celebrated it on the weekend or second weekend after 14 Abib. Within these two groups, a variety of streams developed with various ways of calculating the commencement and duration of Passover. Due to the development of the two groups and various streams within them, one cannot claim an authentic or normative calculation of the Passover date and duration thereof. ae2026 Church History and Church Policy PhD Unrestricted SDG-04: Quality education SDG-11: Sustainable cities and communities SDG-16: Peace, justice and strong institutions 2017-06-28T13:38:03Z 2017-06-28T13:38:03Z 2017-04-06 2017 Thesis Pretorius, W 2017, 'n Kerkhistoriese ondersoek na die onwikkeling van die kalendriese aspekte van die paasfees binne die Christendom in die eerste drie eeue N.C, PhD Thesis, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/61200> A2017 http://hdl.handle.net/2263/61200 af © 2017 University of Pretoria.
